AMBASSADOR GUN Release New Video; Band Checks-In From Current Tour

Minneapolis blastmerchants AMBASSADOR GUN checked in from amidst their ongoing tour this week, while doing some bodywork on their van outside of a Wal-Mart. It turns out that their allies in Blue Ox had to bail from the tour at the last minute as one of the members nearly disengaged his entire leg in a brutal chainsaw accident! But automotive setbacks and chainsaw'd tourmates aside, AMBASSADOR GUN will forge on for the remaining seven dates of the trek, with a vicious showdown in Reno confirmed for today evening. "Fuckin way of the road, one cluster fuck after another" they stated. "At least the shows have been good!"

Check out AG in full-on tour effect via their new self-filmed video for "Wounded Knee," the opening track from their new album Golden Eagle, below.

Also jam the album's second track "Christbastard" in your ears via the AMBASSADOR GUN Bandcamp Page, also below.

Here the trio cranks out 11 new songs 30 minutes, the album prevailing as a new DIY standard for the band, fully produced, recorded, and released by the members themselves. Golden Eagle is out now on cassette and digital download via the band's self-operated label Pangea Media now.

AMBASSADOR GUN: Minneapolis Grindcore Trio To Self-Release New Album; Midwestern Record Release Tour Nears

Malicious grind-metallers AMBASSADOR GUN are preparing to lash out at humanity with another dose of their rabid and caustic alloy this June, with a tour of the Midwestern U.S. planned to coincide with its release.

The outfit's first full-length since their 2009-released When In Hell album, the newly completed Golden Eagle shows AMBASSADOR GUN as always bridging all gaps seemingly subdividing extreme punk/metal genres into a crushing, crusty punk-as-fuck grind-infused amalgamation of revulsion. The trio cranks out 11 new songs 30 minutes on Golden Eagle, the album prevailing as a new DIY standard for the band, fully produced, recorded, and visually presented by the members themselves.

As with previous recordings, AMBASSADOR GUN will take aim at the masses directly with Golden Eagle, set to release the record via cassette and digital download via their self-operated label Pangea Media on June 19th.

AMBASSADOR GUN back in the studio

2010 episode 1

Ambassador Gun "Ignorance is This"

- - - - -

"Loud and almost overly-aggressive, Ambassador Gun push the borders just enough to cause tension but relent at just the right moments." - Exclaim! Magazine

"Making sure there's plenty of emphasis on the 'core end of their grindcore, Minneapolis' Ambassador Gun follow in Nasum's footsteps through creating a racket that's as visceral as it is volatile, and shot through with a punkish snarl." 4/5 - Kerrang Magazine

"...When In Hell is a whirlwind, but it’s not as pummeling as Mumakil, as blistering as Nasum, as raw as Insect Warfare or Magrudergrind, nor as grind as any of those. It incorporates its outside influences towards streamlining grind’s abrasive tendencies, making the Ambassador’s music more immediately palatable than any of those bands listed above." - MetalReview.com
